Save button missing from Edit Collection page

[Elijah]

I am missing the save button and am unable to save edits to a collection description for one collection in particular - all other collections' "edit collection" pages have a save button as expected. Has anyone else experienced this or found a workaround?

@Elijah,

We have not experienced that phenomenon. Questions which might help.Do you own the collection? If it is owned by someone else? Are they also missing the save button?

[Elijah]

Thanks for the response. I recently inherited our ResourceSpace system from a predecessor who is no longer at my organization. I have an admin user account, and have experimented with assuming the user of many other internal accounts including the original collection owner. All seem to have this issue. Furthermore, I created a new collection with the same contents under my user - I was able to set a new description at the time of creation, but am once again prevented from saving further edits.

How very strange! Did you use the exact same description or a different one? Is it a public or private collection?

[Elijah]

The new description varies slightly, reflecting several edits that were necessary when I first encountered the issue. The collection is public, but aggregates additional "in progress" items for those logged in with sufficient access. It is also based on a search query in order to automatically collect new items. The collection is > 30,000 items.

I will also note that I appear to be able to update the description via API - though this is not ideal for other internal users who might maintain the collection.
